Popcorn! Also her head smells of egg fried rice when she's wet, it's my favourite smell

shitinmyhandsandclap · 22/10/2020 11:39

Yep, biscuits here too but she seems to be going through a greasy, scaly stage at the moment so they are a bit funky...possibly cheesy

Popcorn

Cowpats. Luckily you have to get close to realise this as a strong scent of ditchwater envelopes them. I’m hoping it’s just yesterday’s ascent of the muck heap and my sketchy dog showering technique, rather than a permanent thing, but they potter round the farm all day, so...

@Reedwarbler

I don't care if it is caused by bacteria (which I didn't know until I read this thread) I love the biscuity, comforting, warm smell of my dog's feet ; it's a bit like smelling your favourite teddy when you're a kid - or is that just me? I think it's mutual because my dog likes licking my feet, but I draw the line at doing that to hers.
It is lovely and comforting isn't it?

Sometimes it's the first thing I smell in the morning. Sets me up for the day Grin

@dancerdog

Digestive biscuits.

We thought we were the only people who checked their dogs paws for that aroma. Maybe that's why they lick them.

I’ve just had a whiff. Like an old book in a dusty old library. I was a little alarmed and disappointed until I realised he’d ran into the cellar earlier.

Biscuits, mostly, but sometimes mud.

Digestives

I hope the PPs who have 16 paws to sniff have 4 dogs and not one hideous frankenstein dog! Grin

I😃it's a good way to find out where they've been - who needs pet trackers?

Popcorn or basmati rice. I call him basmati bear

ZombieOtter · 22/10/2020 13:54

Peanuts or biscuits. The smell gets stronger when she's asleep💗

Haenow · 22/10/2020 13:57

My dog’s nickname is Popcorn Paws. :)

londonscalling · 22/10/2020 13:57

Hang on, let me go and sniff him! ....

SparklesAllOver · 22/10/2020 14:00

Popcorn! My favourite thing is to sniff his paws, second fave is the sweet, spicy smell of his ears. I love my pooch so much.

LeaveMyDamnJam · 22/10/2020 14:02

Biscuits.

spiderlight · 22/10/2020 14:02
